Vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) is commonly used to treat drug-resistant epilepsy and depression. The therapeutic effect of VNS depends on stimulating the afferent vagal fibers. However, vagus a mixed containing efferent fibers, cardiac fibers during may produce rare but severe risk bradyarrhythmia. This side challenging mitigate since VNS, via electrical technology in clinical practice, requires unique electrode design pulse optimization for selective only Here we describe method using...
